Cannabidiolic Acid Added to Restek's Reference List

Medical cannabis potency can now be tested with greater accuracy using Restek’s new DEA-Exempted CBDA Certified Reference Material.Restek has expanded its selection of cannabinoid-related reference standards by adding cannabidiolic acid (CBDA).

This 1,000 ppm standard is DEA-exempted, so you do not need to purchase costly neat materials or to make your own standards. It is prepared in acetonitrile, which helps maintain stability by preventing methylation of the carboxylic acid group on the molecule.

Paired with Restek’s THC standards, it is perfect for the analysis of both neutrals and acids in cannabis products by LC and is a must for accurate quantification in medical cannabis potency testing and strain ID. Restek’s CBDA standard is also a certified reference material (CRM) so you know that it meets strict ISO quality requirements.

From potency to pesticides analysis, Restek offers the LC and GC chromatography columns, CRMs, accessories, and sample prep supplies, as well as technical literature and support, needed for accurate, reliable medical marijuana analysis.
